[ltp] R40 battery charging problem

Can anyone explain why a new (replacement) battery on an R40 won't charge past 
~13%, even when the machine is turned off?  I returned an original 
replacement when it did the same thing assuming that the battery was 
defective.

How can I get it to charge?  I don't have an external charger.

TIA
